The shooting of the Hindi remake of VTV began in Chennai on Wednesday (28 July). The first scene was canned at the Ode Cafe gallery on the scenic ECR stretch. Prateek Babbar, the hero of the movie, is in town for this purpose. Like its original, the Hindi VTV will have Rahman's hugely successful tunes. Directed by Gautham Vasudev Menon, this movie also has Trisha as the heroine.

Trisha looked very cheerful after the first day's shoot. When asked about the proceedings, she replied that everything went according to the plan and it was all fun during the first day. Having worked with Gautham already, Trisha praised the director for his meticulous planning and said she feels very much at home with VTV unit. Being an experienced actor herself, Trisha has no problems working with a relatively newcomer Prateek. "We all had a blast during the first day shoot and I hope it is the same for the entire shoot", she smilingly concluded.
